I think that photos are overrated, Fred you sure clean up nice.
Look forward to seeing you all in you in the field.
Brad, I'll look for the guy with the remote.
Isn't next years meet in Kansas?

Fred it's a long story but it was the only way I could hunt the field, as everyone who hunts in Dodge knows it is a well known "gos field."
I had to borrow the bird at the last minute to gain entry and didn't have a glove.
ps she bagged a bunny in a 100 yd flight and then I needed to borrow a bag to put it in.
Sometimes I am somewhat unprepared for what life throws at me!

Heather, I was out in Dodge last month with 2 goshawkers, the big joke was that I was in a gosfield most of the time. The tercel and hen Harris each caught a jack( I was afraid to hunt the two together due to her aggressive nature) The goshawkers caught the heck out of cottontails, but went home empty with the jacks. We had a great laugh. There are way more jacks taken in the fields of Dodge with Harris hawks, They rule!

Conor, I consider you one of the best photographers on this site and have enjoyed so many of your pics that I will gladly oblige. I don't tend to take many photos while I'm hawking so the pics are scarce with such a new bird. I'll dig up what I can. A PFRT I had several years ago was a Harlan's also.....very dark bird. She moulted darker every year, flew her 5 seasons. Had no digital camera back then so I have no easy photos to post. Talk to you later.

Might not get a chance to meet any of you but since I have replied to some of these topics I figure you should at least know what I look like.
Happy hunting to all!!
Since we're coming up on Dodge City, I thought I'd toss a couple pictures of me up.
